PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a welterweight MMA rules bout between Jay Hunter (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Devil Jho (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Hunter comes to the cage accompanied by Cyprus Hill - Hits From the Bong. Jho has chosen Into the Abyss as his entrance music, which hasn't gone down very well with the crowd. Both these guys have really solid chins. Will we see a standup war or will they both decide that a knockout is unlikely and try to win the fight elsewhere?
